As the COVID-19 variant wipes Hollywood's January events calendar, shows and parties scramble to reschedule ahead of the March 27 Academy Awards.
What does this mean for 2022? Insiders say that it’s leading to a crunched awards season schedule with events now forced to reschedule in the narrow February and March window leading up to the Academy Awards on March 27.
And though “due to the fact that things are closing down, there’s a lot of open dates,” says Barker, the season’s many award shows — including DGA, WGA, SAG, Critics Choice and Indie Spirits — may be left fighting over a handful of Sundays and other coveted nights. There are also voting windows to consider when deciding when to reschedule, one source says, as talent are more likely to participate in events when prime voting windows, for the likes of the Oscars and SAG Awards, are still open.
Fights over dates aside, venues will also likely be a challenge — though most of the big shows are held at separate spaces year after year, many of the accompanying parties and smaller events reserve the same spots. And this year, there is sure to be an even bigger demand for venues with outdoor, COVID-safe spaces.
Goss says he expects that when events do return from this omicron pause, NeueHouse will be booked nearly every night until the Oscars to keep up with the demand — it’s just a question of when that return will be.
